Dave, certain chip collectors are not highly regarded on this mailing
list. Responsible and non-obnoxious ones are quite welcome.
My interest is in collecting whole, undiced silicon
wafers. These are
much more accessible for research and the interest does not conflict with
those of other people.
Are there other interested people out there? If this site is not the best
for this sort of discussion can you recommend a better one?
I don't know that this is necessarily the best place to discuss collecting
wafers. I guess it depends on how or whether you objectify them.
Why do you collect them?
